Hello,
I am not sure if this is the right forum to post this, so I am sorry if
it isn't.
I am knew to java software development using the Sun Java plugins. My
company has released a beta version of some software that is targeted for
the 1.5 version of the java plugin. A company who is beta testing the
software is having trouble with the fact that their software that runs in
the 1.4.0_02 version of the plugin does not work with the 1.5.
Now my question is how do we as a company handle this? Should we target
the software for the 1.4? This company is only a small percentage of the
people who will use the software. Shouldn't the 1.4 software work with the
1.5? Or what will happen to our 1.5 software when the plugin goes up to 1.6
or version 2?
What should we do?

Nobody can stop progress.
In the end, they *have* to upgrade to 1.5 or 1.6.
So the solution is for this company to update their software to work
with 1.5. Usually this is a very small effort.
